April 10 photos in 10 hours | custom photo book design

Saturday was actually a really stressful day.  My daughter wasn’t feeling well (getting over another ear infection) and my son…well, he is three.  He was okay most of the day until a major tantrum around 7.  But we survived and here are the photos from the day!  And a couple more than 10 :)…

April Podcast

The March/April podcast is finally here!  It took me a while but I was finally able to pull it all together!

In this podcast, I take a simple photo book concept from beginning to end.  There is a FREE companion download to this podcast.  I hope you check it out and I would love to hear how it helped your photo book.  Also, I would love to see any photographs or layouts you come up with!  Add a comment with a link below!

Thanks and Enjoy!!!

Family Meal Photo Book Challenge | Southern Biscuits

On Tuesday, I posted some photographs from our family Saturday morning biscuit baking!

I want to show some examples of how this can be translated to a photo book layout.  I hope this inspires you to document your family meal and incorporate the photographs into your photo book.

our christmas tradition

One of our Christmas traditions is to bake, decorate and leave sugar cookies for Santa.  While the holidays are always hectic and the lure of store-bought cookies would be very easy, I actually enjoy taking the time to make the cookies (and icing!) from scratch.  This year I doubled the icing recipe for homemade carrot cake.  I hope this is something I can keep up with as my kids get older.  I think with each year, they will enjoy it more and more.

[hr] My youngest daughter can’t help yet, but she looked so adorable on Christmas Eve holding the cookie cutters.

My sister and I are rolling out the cookie dough (somewhat blurry photo from my husband who is learning to shoot manual!).

 

[hr] And my son did a fabulous job decorating the cookies.

As a tradition, I will design a specific layout in our photo yearbook so each year we can see the cookies they decorated.

What are your Christmas traditions?

 

 

Q: Why should I purchase a BOOK THIS PROJECT custom photo book?

Q:

Why should I purchase a BOOK THIS PROJECT custom photo book?

A:

If you are looking for a small (20 page) photo book, perhaps documenting a single event such as vacation, a book from BOOK THIS PROJECT is not for you.

But…if you are anything like me, and fit at least one of the categories below, a BOOK THIS PROJECT custom designed photo book is perfect for you and your family.

. You take hundreds or thousands of photographs of your family each year.  (I must confess, I have been known to take almost two hundred photographs in one day!)

. You are extremely busy and can never find the time to sit down and create your own photo book…especially at the end of the year.

. You want a sophisticated and modern design, but have no idea where to begin.

. You are looking for motivation and inspiration for photographing your family.

. You desire an easier way to compile and print your photographs.

. You love the idea of starting a tradition; documenting each year as your kids grow up.

. You have family members who live far away and want them to stay connected to your everyday lives through a photo book.
